In 2015, Billingsley was sentenced to 30 years in prison, with 16 years suspended, after he pleaded guilty to a first-degree sex offense, court records show.

The Maryland sex offender registry shows he was released from prison in October. The registry classified him in “tier 3,” which includes the most serious charges and requires offenders to register for life.

              I know what retributivism is, and it perfectly fits into what you’ve written so far. Now explain to me: why shouldn’t we be preemptively retributive with people like you?

                Pre-emptily retributitve?

                You want to equate my belief, that the punishment should fit the crime by saying “a killer deserves to face death to right the wrong” to being a killer my self? Then explain to you why you shouldn’t have that view point? Pre-emptively?

                Just making sure I understand you properly.

                  You want to equate my belief, that the punishment should fit the crime by saying “a killer deserves to face death to right the wrong” to being a killer my self?

                  Everyone wants a punishment that fits the crime, but we disagree what punishment fits what crime. You want the state to kill people who you think deserve to be killed, but you also know that this will lead to innocent people being killed by the state, which is acceptable to you. How does that not make you complicit in the murder of innocents?

                  Then explain to you why you shouldn’t have that view point? Pre-emptively?

                  Why you shouldn’t have what view point? The one that leads to innocent people being killed? Because it leads to innocent people being killed. Generally, any view point that leads to innocent people being killed is one you shouldn’t have.

                    You know, if you just watched that video. You’d understand my view point and it also has the opposite opinion, its both arguments give by two people who are more able to explain it better than me. Im basically trying to understand it myself and I try to explain it with some confidence with every other person on lemmy.

                    The crime is? He kills his 3 kids. The punishment? Death, in this case. deserved and proportional, in my opinion, in this case!

                    Btk, same opinion. Greene River, same opinion.

                    You keep saying innocent people will be killed and you believe i want that to happen. I do not. you say “its inevitable” and I will say, that if you kill someone on false charges, it is wrong and it should only be applied to the cases I have stated previously, not a power just given out willy nilly.

                    I’m not actively calling for an extremely low bar death penalty justice system, I say, eye for an eye. Killed his kids, delete him from life and this other guy from OPs post the guy rapes and kills a woman, 26, no remorse, killing is like brushing teeth, delete him from our society, and because I belive that I’m a potential murderer? Geeze man, thats depression as a conclusion. mountains, mole hills or something something.
